Silver cables


I am interested in purchasing silver rca cables with a budget of around $100.00-$200.00 for the pair. I have not seen many pure silver cables in that range with the exception of some offerings from Soundsilver and Darwin's original cables, but Darwin's have jumped quite a bit in price recently. Any suggestions, or any experiences with Soundsilver's offerings or any other silver cables in my price range . All suggestions/critiques will be greatly appreciated.

RE: Darwin Cables... Hi Minilogo and others. Sorry I caught this discussion late but I did want to clear up one thing regarding Darwin Pricing. Our original Darwin Silver IC was introductory marketed at $195 as a strategy simply to get the cable heard and reviewed by as many people as possible. The actual price was always $295. We have on occasion run sales for $245. If you do see a sale on a Darwin Cable it is a legitimate sale and will end when we say it will. We sometimes have B Stock and prototypes on sale so it as always worth a call to us. We do understand budgets and feel our Darwin Silvers are reference quality in their own right. If you check our site you will find any number of cases in which our cables are beating some big names at 5-10 times the price. Happy New Year to all! Tony Bender, Darwin Cable Company
Well, I've finally broken in my Tempo Electric silver speaker cables and yes, they are da bomb. My Mapleshades have been supplanted (they put up a good fight) but when there is a clear winner the title has to be passed.

The performance increase is on the level of the Darwins Sivler ICs I have. It took a while for them to break in but I had no idea just how big an improvement they'd be. In a few hours my review of them should post under 'cable reviews' so feel free to check them out.

It only goes to show that you don't have to spend big bucks to get big results.

All the best,

Nonoise, I have been using Tempo SC's since the inception of my system. I also use the same Tempo IC's (XLR-RCA, pre to amps, wanted to refrain form adaptors) To be fair, I had not compared any others in these two positions.
I am very happy and am happy that you are happy and happy to spread the happiness. Enjoy
Isochronism, I wish I was as fortunate as you to have discovered these gems at the beginning of all of this. I haven't heard everything out there but I truly don't believe you're missing anything.

Happy? Yes. Enjoy? Most certainly.

All the best,

I compared the Tempo silver cables to Amadi as Ischronism was very kind to let me try them. They are very good ic's with superb detail retrieval and smooth sound.

In the end I find the Amadi silver ic's more to my liking. They are just as resolving, but with a more powerful bottom end and more natural tone. The Amadi ic's have more body and weight and convey a more full bodied, natural sound. This was what I found in my system which consists of;

TRL Dude preamp

Coincident TVIII speakers.....modified
